As the title says. I may buy a set of them and needed to see how they compliment each other.

 

 

sweet, that was fast. Thanks! I am pretty sure i've seen a few on here that have thiers powdercoated black, or at least painted gloss black.

 

there u go my car. good luck finding them a pic of them in black tho. I wouldnt paint them black btw. i'd do graphite and clearcoat them, but black is too much in my opinion

 

klklklklklk

 

95blkmax, i would consider both graphite and black. The reason i said black was i swear i saw them on here. Your car looks nice though! It looks really good on there. How do you like them? Oh and thanks Sober, again.

 

95BLK i love your car.. what are you lowered on?

 

 

oooooooooo, now just on a car Thanks man, you've been a lot of help.

 

Me and sober are in the process rite now of restoring my wheels. that's silver wheel paint +clearcoat (both duplicolor). And I love the dang wheels! 16.0lbs for a 16x7.5, and u can get them cheap too, so . Im dropped on Progress/GR2s, its on my Sig fromt he 1st post

 

Those are going on 95BLKMAX's car in a few days or so...

 

Yea, see you live in that nice climate where you can paint and not worry about it not drying wrong. I live in Indiana, and its ****ing snowing now. So if i do get these wheels, it'll have to wait a few months. If i did do graphite it would be both duplicolor paint and clear coat. I read you are supposed to use the same brand.

 

you know you can tape off the tires right

 

Those tires are coming off before he mounts them... They have like 3 bullet holes in them anyways :P

 

I was just going to say something about that haha. Does paint come off the sidewalls very well?

 

not really, I painted my stock fourth gen wheels. I taped everything off but some still managed to get thru onto the tires. Thru normal washing the paint did not come off...those tires are gone now, so no big deal.

 

bump.......

 

I detailed cars for 5 years in college. If you get paint on the wheels, paint thinner works great on a cloth rag. It works good on dirty wheels also. It brings them back to black again. Drench the rag in it. Just don't get too much on your hands(painful). Engine degreaser and a firm brush works wonders also. If you have Aluminum wheels that are not clearcoated or painted wheels that are not clearcoated, DO NOT USE DEGREASER. It will eat away the finish. Especially non clearcoated polished Aluminum wheels. If they are clearcoated (painted or Aluminum)you will be ok as long as you rinse them off fairly quickly (1 min). Just my 2 cents.

 

thats looks like my wheel color

 

Hey 95BLKMAX, have any updated pics with the gunmetal wheels on?

 

last time I saw him, they werent finished yet..

 

that painted 300zx wheel looks hot .... I just got a pair of gunmetal rims that I wanna paint silver .... you used duplicolor wheel paint and clearcoat? ... how do you prep the wheel?..any sanding??

I mounted them yesterday. Pics are a-comin' i guess. BTW, the rims are more silver than gunmetal in person.

 

the more I look at these Z rims the more I like them. They have a very stock look to them, but on the max's posts above it looks quite nice, smooth, and stylish.

I'll have to keep my eyes out for a set of them. . . plus they'd go well with my BBK to come

 

bump..........

 

I painted my hubcaps graphite.

 

*cough* ....ever get them mounted?

 

does the front and rear rims has the same width? coz i know the 300zx uses wider tires in the back

 

the NA cars are the same. The TT car has wider rear wheels

 

Anyone know where i can get some nice looking 18" black rim with a chrome lip anyone got a pic of that?
